Ziyue Qiao is currently a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the School of Computing and Information Technology at Great Bay University. Previously, he served as a Postdoctoral Researcher at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) under the supervision of Professor Hui Xiong, an IEEE and AAAS Fellow. He earned his Ph.D. in 2022 from the Computer Network Information Center, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, where he was advised by Professor Yuanchun Zhou and Professor Yi Du. In 2021, he gained industrial experience as a Research Intern at the City Brain Lab, DAMO Academy, Alibaba. He received his B.E. degree in 2017 from the School of Computing at Wuhan University, supervised by Professor Lefei Zhang.

Research interests

His research interests encompass Data Mining, Graph Machine Learning, and Knowledge Graph. His previous work has primarily focused on the following areas:

Data-efficient ML Image

Graph Learning

  • Graph neural network
  • Semi-supervised Learning
  • Self-supervised Learning
  • Data-centric Learning
Transferable ML Image

Transfer Learning

  • Pre-training & Fine-tuning
  • Prompt Learning
  • Out-of-distribution Learning
  • Continual Learning
AI for Academic Image

AI for Academic Community

  • Academic Knowledge Graph
  • Scholar Name Disambiguation
  • Proposal Review Assignment
  • Academic Pre-trained Model

Recently, His primary research area has been Model-efficient Machine Learning. The goal is to minimize the need for training new models, instead reusing/fine-tuning existing models or leveraging foundation models/large language models for various machine learning tasks. The focus is on utilization maximization and sustainability of models/knowledge through techniques such as transfer learning, continual learning, data-centric learning. He has a special interest in applying these objectives in the field of graph machine learning.
